What it does.
Better Messages changes how Drupal notification messages appear on screen. Site builders can position the message panel, control its width and animations, and choose how long messages remain visible.
The project documents per-page visibility and theme overrides for custom presentation. It also describes graceful fallback when JavaScript is disabled. Some examples on the long-running project page refer to older Drupal implementations, so configuration should follow the installed branch.
Capabilities.

Using the module.
